boost: update to 1.39

[arsptr@…]

Enclosed is my attempt at a Portfile for boost 1.39.

In this release, the configure script has been removed, so the port attempts to call bjam directly with the correct arguments. This is simpler in some ways actually (eg the patchfile is no longer needed).

[arsptr@…]

First attempt. I've tested this with +docs +graphml +icu and +python25. I specifically haven't tried with +openmpi or the other variants (yet).

I've just got my hands on this ticket. I'm currently writing a portfile for boost too. I've got everything working, except for the --layout=system part, which keeps whining about duplicate names when +debug and +st are enabled. The only missing thing for now is a universal variant.

[nox@…]

Changes:

• Update to 1.39.0.
• Use versioned names for the libraries to enable +st and +debug.
• Rename +docs variant to +doc for consistency.
• Fix documentation variant which was also installing libraries and tools.
• Remove darwin platform block as it's the only architecture supported by this port.
• Patch the darwin toolset to properly name libraries when creating them.
• Use python executable to get its site-packages directory.
• Enable universal support (currently only ppc and i386).
• Ignore any user-config.jam and site-config.jam which could change the build process.
• Properly configure the python Jam module when selecting a python* variant.

Forgot to say: It also makes use of buildmakejobs from the MacPorts configuration and properly build Boost.Random.

* Enable universal support (currently only ppc and i386).

Please consider full universal support (i.e. including 64-bit) for the final port. I already filed a modification of the Boost 1.38 Portfile (#18963) that might help. I basically select the bjam architecture and address-model parameters according to ${universal_archs}.

[nox@…]

Thanks for pointing me the other ticket. I'll integrate it in my patch.

[illogic-al@…]

The Portfile doesn't actually succeed at doing universal compilations.

Use boost 1.39.0_1, it should work.
